How it works
Tailored This approach and This approach
This kind of therapy, also known as this kind of therapy, focuses on the dynamics between partners. It helps individuals understand their roles within the relationship and how they interact. This type of therapy differs from individual counselling because it considers the relationship itself as the client. Therapists work to improve the relational system, not just individual behaviours.
Common challenges addressed in our work include communication difficulties, loss of intimacy, financial disagreements, parenting conflicts, and navigating major life changes. Our therapists use various therapeutic approaches tailored to your specific needs. This might include exploring past patterns, learning new communication skills, or developing strategies for conflict resolution. We also offer specialised this kind of therapy for diverse needs.
The aim is to help partners gain new perspectives. It also helps to develop healthier ways of relating to each other. Our therapists are skilled in facilitating difficult conversations. They ensure both partners feel heard and understood throughout the process. This can lead to a deeper connection and a more resilient relationship.
Our approach
Local Support in Maidstone, Ashford, Dartford, and Canterbury
Our practice offers the work we do here across several key locations in Kent. This includes Maidstone, Ashford, Dartford, and Canterbury. We recognise the importance of local availability for many couples. In-person sessions provide a dedicated space away from daily routines, promoting focus and reflection.
For example, in Dartford, you could meet with Samantha Gibson. Samantha has 13 years of experience and is a registered member of the BACP. In Maidstone, Mark Reumel offers support, focusing on helping couples reconnect. For those in Ashford (Egerton), Lynn Garbutt, with 12 years of experience, provides a calm space for communication issues. Beth West also offers this type of support in Ashford, specialising in REBT. In Canterbury, therapists like Daniel Saccoccio provide support for relationship issues. These local options ensure you can find professional help conveniently. We also have practitioners such as Sara ODonnell in West Malling and Ryan Anderson in Kings Hill, both BACP members.
Online counselling also provides flexibility. This is particularly useful if partners live in different areas of Kent or have busy schedules. Our therapists are equipped to deliver effective relationship counselling remotely, maintaining the same level of care and confidentiality. Trish Mayne, located in Faversham, brings 8 years of experience in relationship counselling. Sian Jones, the founder, has over 15 years of experience and works across Kent. Claire Draper in Erith and Victoria Greenwood in Folkestone are also available. For those in Sittingbourne, Jo Walmsley has 16 years of experience, including psychosexual therapy.
